ATI TEAS English Practice Test Questions
Question 1 of 5
Which sentence demonstrates correct use of the apostrophe?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: "The dog's tail wagged." Here's the rationale: 1. The apostrophe in "dog's" indicates possession, showing that the tail belongs to the dog. 2. The sentence structure is possessive, correctly using the apostrophe before the 's'. 3. Options A, B, and D incorrectly use the apostrophe for contraction instead of possession, making them grammatically incorrect.
Question 2 of 5
Which of the following defines the word 'unilateral'?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Performed by one person. "Unilateral" means involving only one side or party. This answer accurately reflects the definition of the term. Choice B is incorrect because it suggests that the action is performed by many people, which is the opposite of what "unilateral" means. Choice C is incorrect because it refers to precision, which is not the defining characteristic of the term "unilateral." Choice D is incorrect because it suggests that the action is performed according to rules, which is not directly related to the meaning of "unilateral."
Question 3 of 5
Select the correct verbs to complete the following sentences: Where _________ everyone? What ___________ they doing?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: is, are. In the first sentence "Where is everyone?" the verb should agree with the singular subject 'everyone,' so 'is' is correct. In the second sentence "What are they doing?" the verb should agree with the plural subject 'they,' so 'are' is correct. Choice A (is, is) is incorrect because 'everyone' is a singular subject, so 'is' is correct but 'is' does not agree with the plural subject 'they' in the second sentence. Choice C (are, is) is incorrect because 'everyone' is singular, so 'are' is incorrect, and 'is' does not agree with 'they.' Choice D (are, are) is incorrect because 'everyone' is singular, so 'are' is incorrect, and using 'are' with 'they' is redundant.
Question 4 of 5
The patient was experiencing intraocular pressure. Based on the analysis of word parts, what is the meaning of 'intraocular' as used in the sentence above?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Within the eyes. "Intra-" means within or inside, and "ocular" refers to the eyes. Therefore, "intraocular" means within the eyes. The other choices are incorrect because they do not accurately describe the location of the pressure in relation to the eyes. "Between the eyes," "above the eyes," and "below the eyes" do not convey the idea of the pressure being inside the eyes, as "intraocular" does.
Question 5 of 5
Which word in the following sentence is a slang term?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Digs. "Digs" is a slang term meaning a place to live. In this sentence, "I love my new digs," "digs" is used informally. "Classical" (B) is a standard English word referring to traditional or high-quality music. "Totally" (C) is an adverb commonly used in informal speech but not exclusively slang. "Jarring" (D) means shocking or disturbing, and though it may not be as casual as "digs," it is not a slang term.
